This document contains information about an ISM 5021 class project on RFID technology. A group of six students - Curtis Bowden, Megan Diehl, Daniel Duffy, Jeremy Fout, Elizabeth West, and David Willink - collaborated on a wiki about interesting applications of RFID. Each student researched and wrote a section on a topic that interested them related to RFID use in animals, retail, schools, privacy/security, and more. The group's goals were to create an informative yet entertaining wiki that covered a broad cross-section of RFID applications.

4.  The group wanted to survey some of the
interesting ways RFID was used.
 This allowed each one to research what
interested them most about RFID.
 Each one contributed a section which gave our
wiki some organization.
 In true wiki fashion, group members were
encouraged to edit and add to each other’s
work.

5.  Team focus needed to create an informative
and educational Wiki that was also
entertaining.
 Harmonizing the Wiki so all thoughts flowed
together.
 Covering a broad enough cross-section of our
subject matter to ensure that we arrived at a
thoughtful and informative Wiki.
 Collaborating effectively while working
separately

6.  Share your thoughts and ideas because more
input leads to more collaboration
and, ultimately, a better final group product.
 Wikis don’t need to be boring!
 RFID has an absurd amount of applications!
 If you missed it on the website, RFID tags can
fit onto the back of a honeybee!

7.  Pick Wiki software that is easy to use so that
everyone is able and motivated to contribute.
 Organize it well so that it is easy to follow for
the reader.
 Make it attractive. Wikis don't have to be ugly.
 Make it fun. Wikis need not be a boring
summary of a random topic; they can be an in-
depth look at real-world applications of a
technology that are entertaining to learn about.
